Probably fixed RMA units. I had to RMA my original June 2022 Deck because it got stuck in some permanent low TDP mode. Otherwise the hardware was still in great condition. If they were able to somehow reflash the firmware to fix this issue it would be like new. I’m sure there were others RMA’d for this issue or minor internal hardware issues that could be fixed. If there were fan issues hopefully they put new fans in as part of the refurbishing process.
I wonder if these refurbished ones are fixed production 1 recalls
I still have mine and it has a really bad fan issue (overheats easily) since a firmware change that reduced the fan speeds or something.
I’d guess they’d just replace whatever part made the original fans mess up.
